Question
What should I wear?
Answer
Thursday Evening Welcome Drinks: casual cocktail attire - Whatever you are comfortable in! We suggest bringing a jacket for the cooler night air. Friday Evening Rehearsal Dinner (for those attending): Dressy-Casual - sports coats and dresses are welcome, as well as button ups, slacks, and cocktail dresses. Bring a jacket! Saturday Wedding: Formal - Suits and dresses, but if you'd like to go fancy and wear a tux or gown that's great too! Whatever you feel your best in! We encourage fun colors, patterns, and expressing your personal style (you too fellas!) See the photo at the top of this page for outfit inspiration ideas.
Question
What will the weather be like?
Answer
The average high for Thermal, CA in February is 75 degrees during the day and around 50 degrees at night! It can certainly be chilly in the desert evenings, but the dry air is quite pleasant with a jacket. The ceremony will be outside before sundown, the dinner will be under cover in a heated tent, and the reception will be a blend of indoors and outdoors near the house on property.
Question
Is there parking?
Answer
We will have valet service available for parking on site for the wedding day. However, we encourage using rideshares or carpooling, especially for Thursday and Friday.
Question
Are kids welcome?
Answer
Yes, kids are welcome to all events!
Question
Will there be accommodations for dietary restrictions at each meal?
Answer
Absolutely. We live in Santa Monica, so we’ve seen it all. For the wedding, the chefs are preparing vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, and dairy-free options.
Question
Can I bring my gift to the wedding?
Answer
Yes. We will have a secured area set up to drop off gifts!
Question
When will the reception end? Will there by an after party?
Answer
There will certainly be a reception after the wedding ceremony and dinner. This will take place at the house located on Cavallo Ranch’s property, so everything is in the same location. There won’t be an “after-party” per se because the party won’t need to stop at any point! The City of Thermal does not have applicable noise ordinances!
